The design of a disaster prevention centre for Modikwa Platinum Mine in Burgersfort.

Thesis (MTech. degree in Architecture: Professional)--Tshwane University of Technology, 2012. / The aim of this thesis is to design a Disaster Prevention Centre for the platinum mining sector which will save lives and aid in the South African Department of Mineral and Resources' campaign towards "zero fatalities" within the mining industry. The facility is intended to be a prototype for the preventative training of platinum miners around the world by examining past, present and predicted future mining incidents and using this information to create a safe simulated learning environment or mock-up scenario of possible mining hazards.
